# Delete an inferencing deployment

> Delete a stopped or failed inferencing deployment you no longer need.

You can delete an inferencing deployment when you no longer need it. You can delete only a deployment that's
`stopped` or `failed`. NexusOne archives the deployment, and its status changes to `archived`. The deployment stays
in the Inferencing table, and you can reuse its name for a new deployment.

> [!WARNING]
>
> NexusOne archives the deployment right away and doesn't ask you to confirm.

## Prerequisites

Before starting this task, ensure you have the following:

* Required roles: `nx1_finetune_admin`, `nx1_finetune_user`, or `nx1_engineer`.
* A previously created inferencing deployment with the `stopped` or `failed` status. To stop a deployment first,
  refer to [Stop an inferencing deployment](https://docs.nx1cloud.com/documentation/ai/tasks/automl/fine-tune-llm/inferencing/stop-an-inferencing-deployment.md).
